The challenge today is to Give someone else a break.
This is an easy one to do for people with small children. Watching someone else's kids for a couple hours to allow them to have kid free time to shop can be a huge huge help. But everyone can use a little hand once in a while. When you head to the post office, are there packages you could take for a neighbor? If you live in an area that has snow on the ground, can you shovel one more section of sidewalk for someone you know?
It's opening up our eyes to see what's actually happening around us that's the challenge, especially when our to-do list and shopping list seems overloaded already. One small thing can make a big difference in another person's life.
Give it a shot–make someone's day!

It is nice to get a little break away from kids and all of their energy once in awhile… and my nephew has a ton of it… lately he has been extremely rowdy… my sister has been taking an extra hour here or there to try to get some shopping done, so I have been watching him a bit longer each day… I am looking forward to the weekend when I have all the free time I want! Happy holidays all!
You never know how you might brighten someone’s day by offering to do an errand, etc. for them.
Since I’m off school now I try to do more chores around the house to give my mom a break.
I’ve been helping at work, by doing the filing and heavy lifting for my coworker who was injured earlier this year (he fell off of his roof while cleaning his gutters). He has some trouble right now with bending and carrying, while using his cane. I know he would do the same for me-in fact he has in the past when I broke my ankle. But he doesn’t need the extra strain right now, so I’m filing his stuff as well as mine. (and I hate filing)
I help when it’s ask from me by driving them somewhere. Even just being there with them where they need to go, doctors appt
Or even to run errands. I like to help people at every chance I can.
My dad goes for a walk every day and on Tuesdays he helps the priest at a neighborhood church unload food donations from the truck.
My friend and I do kid swap pretty regularly. It is so nice to know that a few times a year my kids are with people I trust and I can just kick back and relax!
Mine will be starting Friday. My 11 year old nephew is coming to stay with me for a week during Christmas break. This will give his mom some peace and allow her to do some shopping after work etc.
Its nice to be able to just take a break.but better when you can help someone else out.I’ve been watching my nieces son while they get their Xmas shopping done and house all decorated.
This year I don’t really know anyone that needs that type of help, but I’m making up a special package for one of my teen’s friends who has had a really rough time lately with a break up, and his dad is an alcoholic. He’s always welcome here, and I thought a special box of treats, books and whatever else cool I can come up with would be a way to make him feel special.
You’re right, taking a break is nice but giving someone else a break is even better. 🙂
